EAST LANSING -- Michigan State was among the biggest fallers in this week's rankings as a result of Saturday night's home loss to Ohio State.

The Spartans (7-2, 4-1 Big Ten) are No. 12 in both the national rankings this week, dropping five spots in the Associated Press poll and six in the USA Today Amway coaches poll after their 49-37 setback to the Buckeyes.

Ohio State (8-1, 5-0) jumped five spots to No. 8 in the AP poll and four spots to No. 7 in the coaches poll and is the highest ranked Big Ten team. Nebraska is ranked No. 11 and Wisconsin is No. 22 to round out the Big Ten teams in the top 25 of the polls.

Mississippi State remained No. 1 and Florida State remained No. 2 in both of the polls this week.
